مشرق اور مغرب ک تعیین قرآن وسنت کی روشن می ا یک تفتیشی جائزہ

Abstract:

The concept of East and West has existed since ancient times. The side from which the sun came up/ rises was called the east, and the side from which it goes down/sets was called the west. In the course of British rule, due to the availability of fast travel resources, as well as British conquests from the American continent to the Asian continent, as well as the problems of world trade. There was a need for a universal beginning and end date. Because the world is round, and the sun rises and sets every hour of the day in certain areas. For this reason, it was considered necessary to establish a date line from which the day and date should be considered to begin. In the Pacific Ocean, the date line between America and Asia is accepted.

Although there is no geographical definition of East and West in the Qur'an and Sunnah, but if we examine the words used for East and West in the Qur'an, the wording of the Dual used in it for East and West with the story of Dhul-Qarnain together, we understand that the date line between Africa and America should be considered. In this case, the word Eastern in the Holy Qur'an refers to North and South America, whereas the word Western refers to Europe and African continent.In addition, the word “Mashriqain” and “Maghrabain” may also indicates that there should be two date lines, separately for the sun and the moon, respectively. Therefore, if the date line of the moon is set at a distance of 180 degrees from the date line assumed after Europe and Africa, then the problem of the date of moon can also be solved.

Key words: Dateline, East, West, Quran, Geography, Atlantic Ocean, America, Two Oceans meeting, Moon dateline,
